Algemene aantekening
The Sesquicentennial Committee (SQC) began about 1992 to plan for the celebration of te 150th anniversary of the founding of Grinnell College. During the first years representatives from the Board of Trustees, Alumni Association board of directors, and Faculty Advisory Committee planned the theme, on- and off-campus activities, and publications. Andy Cooper, '70, chaired the committee, Joe Rosenfield, '26, was honorary chair. After initial planning the committee, headed by Wayne Moyer and including Pamela Ferguson and Rich Ridgway, coordinated the work of various planning groups and implemented these plans. The celebration extended for an 18-month period, beginning May 1995 and ending Dec. 1996.
